“Who Thinks Abstractly?” in a Global Context
Abstract
In the report is analyzed the idea of the famous German philosopher G.W.F.Hegel (1770 – 1831) concerning the specificities of the abstract thinking, emphasized in his paper “Who thinks abstractly?” Contemporary phenomena are outlined, related to that type of thinking as partial, narrow-mind, undifferentiated, labeling, ignoring of the process and the reasons, etc. The relation of this type of thinking, viewed in a global context, to the ecological crisis, to aggression, stigmatization, to the contemporary conflict fields is analyzed. A special attention is paid to and the relevant problems are discussed regarding the subject of the abstract thinking, the “uneducated” person in a global context, as far as regarding the social and the cultural conditions generating him.
